If you have lost one or more natural teeth and are considering the various tooth replacement options available to you, you may want to consider dental implants. At the Cary Family Dental, we have performed many dental implants, and are proud that they have a high success rate.
Dental implants are titanium posts that support a replacement crown. These teeth are extremely lifelike, they look and act like real ones. For this reason, implants are considered one of the most advanced advances in dentistry.
Implant Benefits
Dental implants have actually existed for about half a century, but they are now really coming into prominence. One implant can support an artificial tooth, while others can support a bridge and even the entire dental arch.
Their many benefits include:
Permanence
Dental implants fuse to the jawbone and become literally part of you. With proper care, a dental implant can last a lifetime.
Bone Preservation
When a tooth and its root are lost, the surrounding bone begins to atrophy. An implant goes where the root once was and prevents this from happening.
Realistic
The implant-supported replacement tooth will look and function like a natural tooth. When you smile, your normal ability to bite and touch will return.
Successful
Dental implants have a success rate of up to ninety-eight percent. Titanium is very suitable for mixing human bones, which is the secret of its success.
